Only use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise,
you risk seriously damaging
your
engine.
When
the engine is warm, the
temperature
of the coolant is controlled
by
the engine fan.
As
this fan can
operate
with the ignition key removed
and
because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying

Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground with the engine cold. Unscrew
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check
the level which must be between
the

order to regenerate the filter, you are advised to drive at a speed higher
than
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five minutes
as soon as possible, when
traffic
conditions permit (until the

Low fuel level
Filling
The fuel tank must be filled with the
engine off.
-
Open
the fuel filler flap.
-
Insert
the key, then turn it a quarter
turn.
-
Remove
the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
flap.
When
filling with fuel, a
mechanical
system prevents
opening
of the left-hand side door.
When
the fuel filler flap is open, ensure
that
no one tries to slide this door.
Once
the flap has been closed, the
sliding
side door may jam, push the
door
to close it then open it.
When
the
minimum
fuel
tank
level is reached, this warning
lamp
comes
on.
You then have
approximately 8 litres of
fuel
remaining.
Fill
up
without
delay
to
avoid
running
out
of
fuel.
Never
risk
driving
until
you
run
out
of
fuel
as
this
may
damage
the
emissions
control
and
injection
systems. A
label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds
you of the type of fuel to be
used.
Y
ou must fill with at least 5 litres of fuel
for
it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When
the fuel filler cap is opened,
there
may be a slight air suction noise.
This
vacuum is entirely normal and is
due
to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When
filling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3rd cut-off of the
nozzle.
This
could
cause malfunctions.
The
capacity
of
the
fuel tank is
approximately
60
litres.
-
After
filling
the
fuel tank, lock the
cap
and
close
the flap.
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 %
ethanol), conforming to European
standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles
marketed for the use of this
type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles).
The

The Diesel engines are compatible with biofuels
which conform to current and
future European standards (

which
complies with standard EN 590
mixed
with a biofuel which complies
with standard E
n 14214) available at
the

The B30 biofuel can be used in certain
d

is
subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions indicated
in
the maintenance and warranty
guide.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)
fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure
or
diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly
prohibited
(risk of damage to the

E H dI dIESEL
E

GI

ES
To assure respect for the environment and conformity with the new Euro 6
emissions
standard, without adversely
af
fecting the performance or fuel
consumption
of Diesel engines,
CITROËN
has taken the decision to
equip
its vehicles with an effective
system
that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle
filter
(FAP) for the treatment of exhaust
gases.
Presentation of the Scr system
Using an additive called adBlue®
containing urea, a catalytic converter
turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides
(
no
x) into nitrogen and water, which
are
harmless
to
health
and
the
environment.
The
a
dBlue
® additive is held in a
special
tank
located under the boot
at
the
rear
of the vehicle. It has a
capacity
of
17 litres: this provides a
driving
range of about 12 500 miles
(20
000 km), after which an alert
is triggered warning you when the
reserve
remaining is enough for just
1
500
miles
(2 400 km).
d
uring each scheduled service of
your vehicle by a CITR
o Ë n dealer
or
a
qualified workshop, the
AdBlue®
additive
tank
is
refilled
in
order
to
allow
normal
operation
of
the
SCR
system.
If
the
estimated
mileage
between
two services is greater than
12 500 miles
(20
000
km),
we
recommend
that
you
go
to
a
CITROËN
dealer
or
a
qualified
workshop
to
have
the
necessary
top-up
carried
out.
o
nce the a dBlue
® tank is empty, a
system
required by regulations
prevents
starting
of the engine.
If the SCR
is faulty, the level of
emissions
from
your
vehicle will no
longer
meet
the
Euro
6 standard: you
vehicle
becomes
polluting.
In
the
event
of
a
confirmed fault
with
the
SCR
system,
you must go
to
a
CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified
workshop
as
soon
as
possible: after
a
running
distance
of
650 miles
(1
100
km),
a
system
will be triggered
automatically
to
prevent engine
starting.
